Comment (by ncohen):

 > Really?  I highly doubt that you can write something which is faster
 than `__builtin_popcount()`.

 Well, it is not like I have an explanation for that, it is too low-level
 for me. If I were to try to find an answer I would say that the function
 implemented is inline while builtin_popcount is necessarily a function to
 be called.

 Of course, nothing beats using __builtin_popcount with a popcount
 instruction enabled on the processor, as it is directly translated to a
 function call.

 Ok, now I made these tests a long time ago and it is actually very easy to
 check. I will post that in a second.
